WEARING THE CHEST BELT AND WATCH  
CHEST BELT  
The heart rate chest belt is used to count your heartbeat and  
transmit the data to the watch. To wear the chest belt:  
1. Wet the conductive pads on the underside of the chest belt  
with a few drops of water or a conductive gel to ensure solid  
contact.  
2. Strap the heart rate chest belt across your chest. To ensure  
an accurate heart rate signal, adjust the strap until the belt  
sits snugly below your pectoral muscles.  
TIPS  
The position of the chest belt affects its performance. Move  
the chest belt along the strap so that it falls above your heart.  
Avoid areas with dense chest hair.  
In dry, cold climates, it may take several minutes for the chest  
belt to function steadily. This is normal and should improve  
with several minutes of exercise.  
NOTE If the watch is kept idle without receiving a heart rate signal  
for 5 minutes, the Heart Rate Mode will quit and return to Clock Mode.  
WATCH  
You can wear the receiver watch on your wrist or strap it to a bike  
or exercise machine, as shown below.

TRANSMISSION SIGNAL  
The heart rate chest belt and watch have a maximum transmission  
range of about 62.5 centimetres (25 inches). They are equipped  
with the latest digital coding system to reduce signal interference  
from the environment, as well as analog technology. For more  
accurate readings use the digital transmission signal. You should  
only switch to the analog transmission signal if the situation in point  
2 occurs (see below). Your watch will advise you which system it is  
using and the signal status by displaying the following icons:  
NOTE Whenever the watch is searching for the chest belt signal  
(manual or automatic search), make sure that the chest belt is no  
further than 10 cm (4 inches) from the watch.

To switch from digital to analog or analog to digital system,  
NOTE  
press the chest belt button for more than 4 seconds and then  
force a signal search.  
IMPORTANT  
If the heart icon does not appear on the display or  
is not flashing because no signal has been found, force a signal  
search. See "Signal Search" section for how to do this.  
In the event that you experience a weak signal or your signal is  
disrupted by interference in the environment, follow the instructions  
below to identify and resolve the situation.  
1. The signal is weak - the watch heart rate monitor will only show "0":  
Shorten the distance between the heart rate chest belt and watch.  
Re-adjust the position of the heart rate chest belt.  
Checktheconductivepadsaremoistenoughtoensuresolidcontact.  
Check the batteries. If they are low or exhausted, the range  
may be less.  
Force a signal search (see "Signal Search" section).

2. The gym equipment does not seem to work with your chest  
belt and the digital icon is displayed:  
Most gym equipment is compatible with the analog system  
. Press and hold the chest belt button for more than 4  
seconds to change from digital to analog. Then force a signal  
search (see “Signal Search” section)  
3. Interference from another person's heart rate monitor - their  
heart rate readings appear on your watch, or the heart rate  
monitor shows "0":  
Press the chest belt button to get the watch to receive your  
chest belt signal. Do not press and hold the chest belt button,  
as it will change the transmission signal from digital to  
analog.  
Take the chest belt off for 12 seconds to automatically  
change your User ID. (The watch has 4 User ID's. When  
the watch receives the chest belt signal it will tell you which  
User ID it has selected. Only products with a digital coding  
system have User ID capability.)  
4. The signal is jammed - the heart rate reading on your watch is  
flashing:  
There is too much interference in the environment for your  
heart rate monitor to function. Move to an area where the  
heart rate reading stops flashing.  
WARNING Signal interference in the environment can be due to  
electromagnetic disturbances. These may occur near high voltage  
power lines, traffic lights, overhead lines of electric railways, electric  
bus lines or trams, televisions, car motors, bike computers, some  
motor driven exercise equipment, cellular phones or when you  
walk through electric security gates. Under interference, the heart  
rate reading may become unstable and inaccurate.

the chest belt signal make sure that the chest belt is no further  
than 10 cm (4 inches) from the watch.  
The signal search will take approximately 10 seconds. If after  
10 seconds the heart icon is not flashing, then your signal search  
has been unsuccessful and you need to force another signal search.

will vary. That is why you can change the warm-up and exercise  
countdown time to suit you.  
To set the exercise profile:

MHR% DESCRIPTION  
TARGET ACTIVITY  
0
1
Health  
Maintenance  
65-78% This is the lowest training  
intensity level. It is good for  
beginners and those who  
want to strengthen their  
cardiovascular systems.  
Aerobic Exercise  
65-85% Increases strength and  
endurance. It works

intake capability, burns  
more calories, and can  
be maintained for a long  
period of time.  
2
Anaerobic  
Exercise  
78-90% Generates speed and  
power. It works at or above  
the body's oxygen intake  
capability, builds muscle,  
and cannot be maintained  
for a long period of time.  
MAXIMUM / LOWER / UPPER HEART RATE LIMIT  
Before you begin any exercise program and to achieve maximum  
health benefits from your workout, it is important to know your:  
Maximum heart rate (MHR)  
Lower heart rate limit  
Upper heart rate limit

instructions below:  
MHR  
LOWER LIMIT  
UPPER LIMIT  
MHR =  
220 - age  
MHR x lower target  
activity %.  
MHR x upper target  
activity %.  
E.g. Target activity is 0  
Lower Limit =  
MHR x 65%  
E.g. Target activity is 0  
Upper Limit =  
MHR x 78%

ABOUT THE FITNESS / BODY MASS INDEX  
FITNESS INDEX  
Your VIBRA Trainer Elite and VIBRA Trainer Elite Pro watch will  
generate a fitness index based on your aerobic fitness. This index  
is dependent and limited by the body's ability to deliver oxygen to  
the working muscles in training. It is often measured by maximum  
oxygen uptake (VO2 Max), which is defined as the highest amount  
of oxygen that can be utilized when exercising at an increasingly  
demanding level. The lungs, heart, blood, circulatory system, and  
working muscles are all factors in determined VO2 Max. The unit  
of VO2 Max is ml/kg min.  
The higher the index, the fitter you are. See the tables below for a  
rough guide to what your fitness index means:

warm up (default setting), to the end of your exercise program. In  
addition to monitoring your heart rate and alerting you whenever  
you fall out of the range for the selected training zone, the Program  
allows you to check the calories consumed and the percentage of  
fat burned.

TRAINING INFORMATION  
HOW THE HEART RATE MONITOR HELPS YOU  
A heart rate monitor is the most important tool in cardiovascular  
health and an ideal training partner. It enables you to see and  
monitor results. This helps you assess your past performance,  
maximise your work out and adapt your future exercise program  
to achieve your desired goals in a safer and more effective way.  
When you exercise, the chest belt picks up your heartbeat and  
sends it to the watch. Now you can view your heart rate and start  
monitoring your performance based on your heart rate readings.  
As you get fitter, your heart will need to do less work and the  
speed of your heart rate will decrease. The reason for this is as  
follows:  
Your heart pumps blood to your lungs to obtain oxygen.  
Then, the oxygen rich blood will travel to your muscles.  
The oxygen is used as fuel and the blood leaves the muscles  
and returns to the lungs to begin the process again. As you  
get fit, your heart is able to pump more blood with every  
beat. As a result, your heart doesn't have to beat as often  
to get the necessary oxygen to your muscles.

TRAINING TIPS  
To gain the maximum benefit from your training program, and to  
ensure that you exercise safely, please observe the following  
guidelines:  
Start with a well-defined training goal, such as to lose weight,  
keep fit, improve health or compete in a sporting event.  
Select a training activity you enjoy, and vary your training  
activities to exercise different muscle groups.  
Start slowly, and then gradually step up your work out as  
you become fitter. Exercise regularly. To maintain a healthy  
cardio-vascular system, 20-30 minutes three times a week  
is recommended.  
Always allow at least five minutes before and after exercising  
for warm-up and cool-down.  
Measure your pulse after training. Then repeat the  
procedure again after three minutes. If it does not return to  
its normal resting rate, you may have trained too hard.  
Always check with your doctor before starting a vigorous  
training program.  
CARE INSTRUCTIONS  
To ensure you receive the maximum benefit from using this  
product, please observe the following guidelines:  
Clean the watch and chest belt thoroughly after each training  
session. Never store the products when wet.  
Use a soft, slightly moistened cloth. Do not use abrasive or  
corrosive cleaning agents, as these may cause damage.  
Avoid pressing the keys with wet fingers, under water, or in  
heavy rain, as this may allow water to gain entry into the  
electrical circuitry.  
Do not bend or stretch the transmitter part of the chest belt.  
Do not subject the product to excessive force, shock, dust,  
temperature changes, or humidity. Never expose the  
product to direct sunlight for extended periods. Such
